Attachment to convert a standard handheld hair blow dryer into a device that can be used to iron clothing

Abstract

This invention is able to attach to standard handheld hair blow dryers, and can turn most standard hair blow dryers into an iron, for wrinkle free clothing and fabric. The invention allows the same tool to be used to dry your hair, and converted into an iron by attaching this device. This newly invented attachment, allows you to blow dry your hair and iron your clothes, without the risk of scorching fabric, using your standard blow dryer. This invention enables ironing even with clothes on a hanger. This invention, when attached to a standard blow dryer, conveniently may be used to dry clothing fast, after exposure to rain, snow, beach environments and at the same time remove wrinkles. It is portable, lightweight, metal-free, biodegradable, and conforms to the size of most standard dryers, making it ideal for air travel.

Claims

1. Wrinkles removed from clothing or fabric with the hot air traveling through the air vents of the attachment.

2. Attachment plus standard blow dryer, enables ironing cloth, without a metal or steel iron.

3. (canceled)

4. Water and steam are not needed for wrinkle free fabric, when using this attachment and a standard blow dryer.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0052] Universal heat resistant plastic attachment for standard sized handheld hair blow dryer, that enables it to be used as a device to iron clothing, removing wrinkles and creating creases. As an alternative to a removable attachment, the body shape and design of the attachment can be incorporated into a composite (non-detachable, one piece) heat resistant shell for the internal mechanical components of a blow dryer. This would allow for the unit to function as one part, without a removable attachment, to provide the same functionalities described above. In the composite (one piece) design, the design and structure of the device that allows air to pass through, and make contact with the fabric, is the same as when it is to be used as an attachment. Thus, in the composite design the new device (attachment structure) merely replaces the typically shaped nozzles of existing blow dryer body designs. The circular end of the tube-like attachment fits over the nozzle of a standard sized handheld hair blow dryer.

[0053] The flat square front of the attachment contains air vents throughout the front panel, for hot air to pass through the attachment and onto cloth for pressing fabric and removing wrinkles. Once a hair dryer has been fitted with the invented above-described attachment, pressing it against cloth will serve the purpose typically performed by a clothes iron. The device releases the necessary heat for spot ironing, wrinkle removal, creasing, and easy ironing. The square panel can be rotated to for ease of use, and to reach into small spaces of clothing and button holes.

[0054] Again, the invention allows a typical blow dryer unit to be converted into a device capable of pressing clothing or garments, through the attachment of this heat resistant plastic component. Or alternately, the invented plastic component can be integrated or fused into a composite one-piece design of the dryer body that serves as the casing for the internal mechanical components of a typical blow dryer unit, thus enabling a permanent fixed unit capable of wrinkle removal and creasing garments utilizing the application of hot air.
